Linea Consortium has joined Linux Foundation Decentralized Trust as a premier member and contributed its core technology as a new open-source project. Also, Linea is now part of the foundation’s governance structure. Linea Consortium is a non-profit uniting leading Ethereum ecosystem institutions, formed to guide Linea's ecosystem growth and decentralization.

As part of the move, the Linea ZK rollup stack is being transferred into the foundation and renamed Lineth. The stack behind Linea is a full EVM-equivalent ZK rollup used in production. It includes execution and consensus layers, a prover, a coordinator, and smart contracts across L1 and L2. The execution layer is based on Besu, originally developed by Consensys and contributed to open-source ecosystems.

Declan Fox from Linea Consortium will join the governing board of the foundation. He will work alongside members from organizations like DTCC, Hedera, Kaleido, OpenAssets, and Shielded Technologies.
